Sign the petition: Declare a public health emergency in Detroit

The Detroit Water and Sewerage Department is shutting off water at
thousands of Detroit residences each week, even if their account debt
was incurred by previous owners. That means families don't have water to
drink, wash their hands or flush their toilets in their own homes.
This is a clear violation of the human right to water, and without
access to water, lack of sanitation poses serious health concerns.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services can do something about
it. By declaring a public health emergency, the federal government can
step in to turn the water back on for all Detroit residents.
Sign the petition to President Obama and Health Secretary Sylvia Mathews
Burwell: Declare a public health emergency and turn the water back on

back on.
